It was a trap I tell you!! Or why you should have a buddy with a beefier 4x4 go with you when off-roading. I dug myself in so hard that I ended up stripping some of the paint off my wheels by spinning my tires hopelessly in the mud.

I sank my 81 Cherokee up to the gas cap on the driver side in quicksand one night on a wilderness reserve road in GA. I didn't have the wheels locked because it was a boat rap road and it was park maintained. It took 3 hours to get a hold of someone that could help. Got lucky and a couple of offroaders herd our plight on the police scanner and they came and pulled it out with a wrangler with an I4 that had sunk up over the hood in the same hole before. They really need a sign on that road warning of the quicksand pit.
I don't know about that. A Ranger and a Tacoma couldn't budge me an inch. I had to call a tow truck and they brought an biggin'. An International chassis heavy duty wrecker to come winch me out. I was at a bottom of a slight hill and when they started reeling in the winch the cable was reeling in, but my Jeep wasn't moving. They were pulling their truck DOWN the hill! The guys ended lowering their boom to the ground to anchor their truck so it wouldn't move. Only then did they get me out. I think I was vacuum sucked into that mud. I was seriously sunk and stuck. :D
Trust me, I tried. No LSD or locker FTL. Soon to be remedied.
Also, I see your gymkhana and raise you some snow. :D

lol, I once got an MR2 buried up to the tail lights, on a hill, with nowhere to go but uphill backwards because it was a dead end at night.
that took 2 hours of rocking it uphill, inch by inch, alone in the middle of nowhere.
Man I miss my Cherokee, is yours the selec-trac, or the command-trac transfer case?
